Hello, and welcome
to The Grand Tour,

12
00:01:19,299 --> 00:01:22,158
which this week
comes to you from Nashville!

13
00:01:22,275 --> 00:01:23,820
There it is.

14
00:01:25,635 --> 00:01:29,156
It was er... It's a city that
was named after General Nash.

15
00:01:29,292 --> 00:01:31,591
Big war hero,
kicked the British out.

16
00:01:31,853 --> 00:01:33,735
He got er...

17
00:01:34,485 --> 00:01:38,210
You ended up with independence. And
how's that working out for you?

18
00:01:39,596 --> 00:01:42,277
I only ask because we were
looking the other day at the

19
00:01:42,362 --> 00:01:44,533
 bestselling cars
in America these days.

20
00:01:44,620 --> 00:01:46,502
This is the top five.

21
00:01:46,750 --> 00:01:50,100
There you go, that's
independence... working well.

22
00:01:50,167 --> 00:01:52,893
Toyota, Honda, Toyota,
Nissan, Honda.

23
00:01:52,978 --> 00:01:55,573
So what is actually made
in Detroit these days, then?

24
00:01:55,768 --> 00:02:01,087
Er... Well, mostly they just grow
sustainable organic peace beans.

25
00:02:01,509 --> 00:02:04,406
- Oh! I mean, it's just women
with armpit hair growing kale.

26
00:02:04,456 --> 00:02:06,016
That's all
that's going on there...

27
00:02:06,087 --> 00:02:08,361
municipal farms
for the community.

28
00:02:08,538 --> 00:02:11,198
Now, the reason
we've come to Nashville

29
00:02:11,276 --> 00:02:12,674
is very simple, in fact.

30
00:02:12,745 --> 00:02:14,955
It's because I've been
to all 50 of the US states,

31
00:02:14,985 --> 00:02:16,533
but I'd never been here before.

32
00:02:16,596 --> 00:02:18,181
And what a town!

33
00:02:18,282 --> 00:02:19,783
Yeah.

34
00:02:21,776 --> 00:02:23,687
- Love it.
- Who knew?

35
00:02:23,776 --> 00:02:25,681
- We are loving it.
- Who knew?

36
00:02:25,792 --> 00:02:27,193
It is a great place,
we're loving it,

37
00:02:27,216 --> 00:02:29,243
and the music is amazing.

38
00:02:29,337 --> 00:02:31,525
Loving that... very much.

39
00:02:31,995 --> 00:02:33,897
- Well...
- What?

40
00:02:34,002 --> 00:02:35,698
- Not really.
- Mate, you can't...

41
00:02:35,723 --> 00:02:37,759
This is known as Music City USA.

42
00:02:37,813 --> 00:02:40,502
- That's what it is, where we are.
- Um, but it isn't, is it?

43
00:02:40,573 --> 00:02:41,605
Because Detroit is.

44
00:02:41,689 --> 00:02:43,841
Oh, no. Listen... No.

45
00:02:43,924 --> 00:02:45,331
It is.

46
00:02:45,417 --> 00:02:46,944
Motown... Motown

47
00:02:47,033 --> 00:02:49,346
is just three minutes
of jangly nonsense.

48
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,221
- Oh, come on, Hammond!
- It is!

49
00:02:51,268 --> 00:02:52,814
Hammond, it just isn't!

50
00:02:52,877 --> 00:02:54,323
You cannot possibly say that.

51
00:02:54,401 --> 00:02:55,384
Country and western music

52
00:02:55,409 --> 00:02:57,073
is designed
to make you miserable.

53
00:02:57,212 --> 00:02:59,533
Motown is designed
to make you happy.

54
00:02:59,596 --> 00:03:01,689
No, he's absolutely right.
Motown is happier music.

55
00:03:01,752 --> 00:03:03,252
I mean, take something like

56
00:03:03,361 --> 00:03:05,479
Martha Reeves
"Dancing In The Streets", OK?

57
00:03:05,526 --> 00:03:07,056
Listen to how happy
the words are.

58
00:03:07,111 --> 00:03:10,221
"Every guy, grab a girl,
everywhere around the world."

59
00:03:10,268 --> 00:03:12,221
Isn't that what Donald
was telling us to do?

60
00:03:16,956 --> 00:03:19,348
Well, he was, wasn't he?
He did. He did.

61
00:03:19,396 --> 00:03:21,628
No, he said,
"Every guy, grope a girl."

62
00:03:21,699 --> 00:03:23,567
A very different thing.

63
00:03:23,659 --> 00:03:26,175
Detroit isn't just Motown.
Bob Seger's from Detroit.

64
00:03:26,230 --> 00:03:27,551
It's just housewives' music.

65
00:03:27,645 --> 00:03:30,020
- Ted Nugent
- Mad!

66
00:03:30,121 --> 00:03:31,777
- Iggy Pop.
- Ridiculous.

67
00:03:31,887 --> 00:03:33,395
- Madonna.
- Annoying.

68
00:03:33,425 --> 00:03:35,043
- Eminem.
- Can't sing.

69
00:03:35,093 --> 00:03:36,855
- Alice Cooper.
- Ridiculous again.

70
00:03:36,912 --> 00:03:38,793
- Half of The Eagles.
- Which half?

71
00:03:38,909 --> 00:03:40,723
- Glenn Frey.
- I don't like that half.

72
00:03:42,465 --> 00:03:44,942
Nashville. Right, what's come
out of here? Miley Cyrus.

73
00:03:44,973 --> 00:03:46,012
Brilliant!

74
00:03:48,872 --> 00:03:51,051
- You just said that out loud on television.
- I did.

75
00:03:51,111 --> 00:03:53,301
And...
And The Allman Brothers.

76
00:03:53,348 --> 00:03:54,729
Never heard of them.

77
00:03:55,308 --> 00:03:56,676
You have.

78
00:03:56,723 --> 00:03:57,864
The Allman Brothers,

79
00:03:57,889 --> 00:03:59,652
they had that one hit,
instrumental.

80
00:03:59,688 --> 00:04:01,490
- What was it called?
- Jessica.

81
00:04:01,598 --> 00:04:02,669
Jennifer.

82
00:04:02,707 --> 00:04:04,027
Oh, I hated that.

83
00:04:04,098 --> 00:04:05,355
You never hear it
any more, do you?

84
00:04:05,379 --> 00:04:06,657
No. Rubbish.

85
00:04:06,730 --> 00:04:07,848
Weirdest thing.

86
00:04:07,878 --> 00:04:09,360
Weirdest thing.

87
00:04:09,385 --> 00:04:10,659
- Oh, hello.
- A message.

88
00:04:10,747 --> 00:04:11,805
Oh, sorry.

89
00:04:11,888 --> 00:04:13,317
This is a message
from Mr Wilman.

90
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:14,513
We've gone a bit off topic.

91
00:04:14,558 --> 00:04:15,796
He might be cross.
We have a bit.

92
00:04:15,820 --> 00:04:18,317
There is a car thing here
we ought to talk about.

93
00:04:18,387 --> 00:04:21,605
It's called coal rolling.
Are you familiar with this?

94
00:04:22,028 --> 00:04:24,141
It has its origins in a sport

95
00:04:24,324 --> 00:04:27,059
where people go with their
pickup trucks into a field

96
00:04:27,137 --> 00:04:29,620
and see who can tow
the heaviest thing.

97
00:04:29,689 --> 00:04:32,456
- Yep. Oh, yep.
- We've got some footage here of it happening.

98
00:04:32,634 --> 00:04:35,262
Look at that! The man in a pickup
truck towing a heavy thing.

99
00:04:35,286 --> 00:04:36,829
There you go.

100
00:04:37,009 --> 00:04:38,971
Things you will never hear
said at that event:

101
00:04:39,048 --> 00:04:41,221
"Got to rush, lads. I'm
late for a poetry reading."

102
00:04:42,939 --> 00:04:44,103
That's truck number three...

103
00:04:44,127 --> 00:04:45,307
Bernie Sanders, everybody.

104
00:04:47,127 --> 00:04:48,619
Anyway, the thing is,
they worked out

105
00:04:48,691 --> 00:04:49,930
they could pull
more heavy things

106
00:04:49,954 --> 00:04:52,752
if they fiddled with the ECU
on the diesel engines,

107
00:04:52,908 --> 00:04:54,901
because that would
generate more power,

108
00:04:54,978 --> 00:04:56,901
and, as a by-product,
more smoke,

109
00:04:56,961 --> 00:04:58,846
cos that's why it's
called coal rolling.

110
00:04:58,923 --> 00:05:01,954
And now, various kids have started
to do it out on the highway.

111
00:05:02,165 --> 00:05:03,439
What they do is go
out on the street

112
00:05:03,463 --> 00:05:05,978
and then do it when they
overtake a Toyota Prius.

113
00:05:06,057 --> 00:05:08,666
Look at this. Here we go.

114
00:05:08,877 --> 00:05:12,884
Oh, for God's sake!
Really?! Oh, come on!

115
00:05:13,026 --> 00:05:14,620
Really?!

116
00:05:15,057 --> 00:05:17,081
- Now, I...
- That's just...

117
00:05:17,338 --> 00:05:20,331
I just... I know,
I know I shouldn't say this.

118
00:05:20,377 --> 00:05:22,447
But every time
I overtake a Prius,

119
00:05:22,596 --> 00:05:24,968
I always think,
"I could do this in fourth...

120
00:05:25,143 --> 00:05:27,009
"but I'm gonna use
second instead

121
00:05:27,252 --> 00:05:28,651
to annoy them even more."

122
00:05:28,697 --> 00:05:31,370
You do know
you are 56 years old?

123
00:05:31,463 --> 00:05:33,737
- Yeah, but I've got a mental age of nine.
- Oh, yeah.

124
00:05:33,831 --> 00:05:36,245
- Shall we get on with the show?
- Yeah, it's time.

125
00:05:36,307 --> 00:05:39,995
On with the show.
In our car show this week...

126
00:05:41,588 --> 00:05:44,362
James runs over a sun lounger.

127
00:05:46,658 --> 00:05:48,377
Richard has a beer.

128
00:05:50,471 --> 00:05:52,081
And I go on a thing.

129
00:05:52,129 --> 00:05:53,862
Jesus!

130
00:05:55,463 --> 00:05:56,776
Anyway, before all that,

131
00:05:56,862 --> 00:05:58,262
we've been having
a bit of a debate.

132
00:05:58,307 --> 00:06:01,547
You see, I say you don't
need to buy a BMW M3

133
00:06:01,603 --> 00:06:06,391
because for £11,000 less
you can have a Jaguar XE S,

134
00:06:06,444 --> 00:06:08,235
which is nicer to drive,

135
00:06:08,314 --> 00:06:10,502
more comfortable
and just as fast.

136
00:06:10,548 --> 00:06:12,470
- It isn't just as fast.
- Yes, it is.

137
00:06:12,533 --> 00:06:15,220
- No, it isn't.
- They both do 155mph.

138
00:06:15,259 --> 00:06:18,822
Yes, because the BMW has been
electronically limited to 155.

139
00:06:18,891 --> 00:06:20,713
The Jag is just... limited.

140
00:06:21,110 --> 00:06:22,742
Sorry to interrupt.

141
00:06:22,766 --> 00:06:24,298
It's just that both my
colleagues are wrong.

142
00:06:24,322 --> 00:06:26,997
Because if you want a small,
fast saloon car,

143
00:06:27,064 --> 00:06:28,516
what you absolutely
have to have...

144
00:06:28,564 --> 00:06:29,644
If you're gonna start going on

145
00:06:29,668 --> 00:06:32,564
about that Alfa Romeo
Giulia Quadrifoglio,

146
00:06:32,759 --> 00:06:36,040
I am gonna stab you
in the eye with this pen.

147
00:06:36,220 --> 00:06:37,822
- No, he's...
- A number of times.

148
00:06:37,875 --> 00:06:40,439
He's right. Alfa Romeo
have not made a decent car

149
00:06:40,463 --> 00:06:42,158
for 30 years.

150
00:06:42,274 --> 00:06:43,985
- Erm...
- "Erm" nothing,

151
00:06:44,103 --> 00:06:45,470
because we need to get
back to the point.

152
00:06:45,494 --> 00:06:46,494
James and I have decided

153
00:06:46,531 --> 00:06:49,072
it was time to sort out
this Jaguar-BMW debate

154
00:06:49,149 --> 00:06:52,516
with a proper old-school
road test in Scotland.

155
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:04,951
Hello, and welcome to Wales,

156
00:07:04,997 --> 00:07:08,411
where I've come with all of
our film crews and this,

157
00:07:08,576 --> 00:07:14,935
the brand-new Alfa Romeo
Giulia... Quadrifoglio.

158
00:07:15,896 --> 00:07:17,021
I think.

159
00:07:17,106 --> 00:07:18,548
Whatever.

160
00:07:18,723 --> 00:07:22,185
Let's get on now
and see what's what.

161
00:07:26,707 --> 00:07:29,606
Now, for this to be
a proper Alfa Romeo,

162
00:07:29,769 --> 00:07:33,572
there must be...
something wrong with it.

163
00:07:33,637 --> 00:07:34,747
Think about it.

164
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,435
A person
who's kind to his mother

165
00:07:37,512 --> 00:07:41,536
and punctual and sober and
well-dressed, he's an Audi.

166
00:07:41,730 --> 00:07:45,058
And nobody
wants a friend like that.

167
00:07:45,153 --> 00:07:48,076
If you're going to form
a relationship with a car,

168
00:07:48,168 --> 00:07:50,457
if you're gonna develop a bond,

169
00:07:50,629 --> 00:07:52,668
it's got to have
human qualities.

170
00:07:52,784 --> 00:07:54,951
And if it's gonna have
human qualities,

171
00:07:55,021 --> 00:07:57,903
it's got to have faults.

172
00:07:58,326 --> 00:08:02,560
And this car, I'm delighted
to say, has a big one.

173
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,487
I don't know quite how
they've managed this,

174
00:08:07,565 --> 00:08:09,632

You've got this pillar here,

How Alfa Romeo is that?

180
00:08:23,151 --> 00:08:25,636
They put the door in the
wrong place. It should be...

181
00:08:25,754 --> 00:08:27,487
It should be further back.

handsome car.

Alfas have had their faults

and then no good bits
to compensate.

is part of the same company
as Alfa Romeo,

222
00:10:32,009 --> 00:10:33,826

You get 503 brake horsepower.

232
00:11:05,910 --> 00:11:11,490
That is 60 more than you get
from a BMW M3. 60!

233
00:11:14,745 --> 00:11:17,317
It's 175 more

234
00:11:17,395 --> 00:11:18,778

that James would be
droning on about now,

had I not stepped in
and saved the day.

237
00:11:25,029 --> 00:11:27,465
And then there's
the way it revs.

238
00:11:32,701 --> 00:11:34,316
Ha!

239
00:11:36,956 --> 00:11:40,941
Most turbocharged engines are
a bit wheezy at the top end,

240
00:11:41,025 --> 00:11:44,331
but because
the twin-scroll turbo in this

241
00:11:44,418 --> 00:11:47,510
is mounted in the V
of the engine...

242
00:11:48,010 --> 00:11:50,453
just like it is
in a Ferrari California,

243
00:11:50,527 --> 00:11:51,924
coincidentally,

244
00:11:52,090 --> 00:11:54,760
the rev counter is still a blur

245
00:11:54,813 --> 00:11:57,182
right up to the red zone.

246
00:12:15,913 --> 00:12:17,615
This engine is...

247
00:12:19,051 --> 00:12:20,837
it's a masterpiece.

248
00:12:20,951 --> 00:12:23,025
An absolute gem.

249
00:12:25,745 --> 00:12:28,393
So, while this may
look like a Wolseley,

250
00:12:28,456 --> 00:12:30,533
it certainly doesn't
go like one.

251
00:12:32,962 --> 00:12:38,643
It has a top speed,
in fact, of 191mph.

252
00:12:40,649 --> 00:12:42,783
What this car is

253
00:12:42,870 --> 00:12:44,706
is a Ferrari...

254
00:12:45,490 --> 00:12:48,206
wearing
four-door sensi-panties.

255
00:12:49,837 --> 00:12:54,850
And that brings me onto
this car's party piece.

256
00:12:55,025 --> 00:12:58,792
At normal speeds, it's very
quiet and very civilised.

257
00:12:59,001 --> 00:13:00,923
And even though
it's running on wheels

258
00:13:01,033 --> 00:13:03,860
that appear to have come off
the bottom of a sofa,

259
00:13:03,962 --> 00:13:05,129
it's very comfortable,

260
00:13:05,153 --> 00:13:06,548
even if you push this,

261
00:13:06,596 --> 00:13:09,072
you put it in
bumpy-suspension mode.

262
00:13:11,604 --> 00:13:13,870
The only setting
I haven't yet tried

263
00:13:13,940 --> 00:13:16,042
is this one... "race".

264
00:13:16,974 --> 00:13:18,283
But I think I should.

265
00:13:18,346 --> 00:13:19,384
Sadly, however,

266
00:13:19,452 --> 00:13:21,721
before I found somewhere
to try it out,

267
00:13:22,013 --> 00:13:24,768
I received a telephone call.

268
00:13:30,121 --> 00:13:32,557
Oh, no. What?

269
00:13:32,837 --> 00:13:35,601
Have you got our film crew somewhere?

270
00:13:35,815 --> 00:13:39,438
- Yes, I have.
- Are you using them to film an Alfa?

271
00:13:39,620 --> 00:13:41,393
- Yes, I am.
- Where are you?

272
00:13:41,479 --> 00:13:43,518
- Wales.
- Wales?!

273
00:13:43,634 --> 00:13:45,721
You can't just arrange
that we go to Scotland

274
00:13:45,783 --> 00:13:47,245
and then disappear off to Wales.

275
00:13:47,283 --> 00:13:48,792
I didn't tell you
to go to Scotland.

276
00:13:48,893 --> 00:13:50,979
You decided to go
to Scotland on your own.

277
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:53,799
We've come
all the way to Scotland

278
00:13:53,823 --> 00:13:55,581
to do this with these two cars.

279
00:13:55,647 --> 00:13:58,384
This is the test.
You trying to shoehorn...

280
00:13:58,643 --> 00:14:00,587
It's wonderful there are
Alfa Romeos in the world.

281
00:14:00,611 --> 00:14:02,643
That's a lovely thing
that we can all...

282
00:14:02,712 --> 00:14:04,131
It doesn't matter
how good you think

283
00:14:04,155 --> 00:14:06,111
the Alfa Romeo is.
This is a car programme.

284
00:14:06,158 --> 00:14:08,759
Concepts, dreams,
imagining things.

285
00:14:08,822 --> 00:14:11,337
Scotland, with two cars
that are credible, relevant,

286
00:14:11,447 --> 00:14:13,221
important, work and are real.

287
00:14:13,292 --> 00:14:15,604
They were still
shouting at me as I arrived

288
00:14:15,667 --> 00:14:18,120
with all of the film crews
at our track.

289
00:14:18,169 --> 00:14:19,936
Itch, that
you've managed to scratch

290
00:14:19,937 --> 00:14:21,120
over the last ten years.

291
00:14:21,173 --> 00:14:22,799
I don't know how. Why...

292
00:14:22,932 --> 00:14:24,533
It's breaking up!

293
00:14:24,557 --> 00:14:26,986
Oh, I've lost you!

294
00:14:33,232 --> 00:14:35,235
Race mode.

295
00:14:37,033 --> 00:14:39,370
Here we go.

296
00:14:50,383 --> 00:14:53,755
In race mode, everything
is in a tensed-up state:

297
00:14:53,834 --> 00:14:56,880
the throttle response,
the gearbox, the steering.

298
00:14:57,014 --> 00:15:00,451
And the traction control is off!

299
00:15:20,697 --> 00:15:22,587
This has now been transformed

300
00:15:22,673 --> 00:15:24,533
from something
that was brilliant...

301
00:15:24,932 --> 00:15:28,408
into something
that is sensational.

302
00:15:37,611 --> 00:15:41,861
Of course, you'd never drive
in race mode on the road,

303
00:15:41,971 --> 00:15:45,611
in the same way you'd never take
your wristwatch into space.

304
00:15:45,807 --> 00:15:51,376
But it's nice to know that it
would still work if you did.

305
00:15:52,144 --> 00:15:53,563
And this does.

306
00:15:53,643 --> 00:15:55,923
Oh, boy, this does.

307
00:15:59,915 --> 00:16:03,337
I've always said you can't
be a true petrolhead

308
00:16:03,416 --> 00:16:06,212
until you've owned
an Alfa Romeo.

309
00:16:06,322 --> 00:16:08,120
And the trouble is,
I've always known

310
00:16:08,173 --> 00:16:09,697
there's no Alfa Romeo

311
00:16:09,775 --> 00:16:13,009
a true petrolhead
would actually want to buy.

312
00:16:13,884 --> 00:16:15,152
There is now, though.

313
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,302
Oh, there is now.

314
00:16:30,626 --> 00:16:33,807
And so I decided to do
something I've never done

315
00:16:33,869 --> 00:16:37,290
with any car I've ever
filmed in my entire life.

316
00:16:37,403 --> 00:16:39,423
I decided,
when the test was over,

317
00:16:39,509 --> 00:16:42,587
to go to the nearest
Alfa Romeo dealer...

318
00:16:43,205 --> 00:16:44,815
and buy one.

319
00:17:05,806 --> 00:17:07,107
What?

320
00:17:12,009 --> 00:17:15,479
- What?
- You total cock.

321
00:17:15,528 --> 00:17:17,079
You stole our film.

322
00:17:17,153 --> 00:17:18,761
Well, not really.

323
00:17:18,911 --> 00:17:20,747
You didn't actually buy one,
did you?

324
00:17:20,852 --> 00:17:22,622
Well, no, cos I couldn't
make my mind up

325
00:17:22,676 --> 00:17:23,817
between that and the 4C.

326
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,192
And it was great. It was like
watching an ape return to its cage

327
00:17:26,215 --> 00:17:28,886
and finding there was
an apple and a banana.

328
00:17:28,958 --> 00:17:31,362
"Oh, I like apple,
but I like bananas.

329
00:17:31,419 --> 00:17:33,529
So do I want the apple
or a banana?"

330
00:17:33,575 --> 00:17:34,910
You would
have had both, obviously.

331
00:17:34,933 --> 00:17:36,411
Hammond, that car is brilliant,

332
00:17:36,458 --> 00:17:38,558
and it only costs £60,000.

333
00:17:38,730 --> 00:17:40,800
Yeah, but honestly, Jeremy,
that doesn't mean anything.

334
00:17:40,825 --> 00:17:42,450
If Alfa Romeo
launched a dog turd,

335
00:17:42,505 --> 00:17:43,426
you'd say it was brilliant.

336
00:17:43,465 --> 00:17:45,472
It is! I'm not making it up!

337
00:17:45,519 --> 00:17:48,511
You heard it. You saw it.
It's a fantastic car.

338
00:17:48,622 --> 00:17:49,980
Anyway, listen, we must find out

339
00:17:50,036 --> 00:17:54,684
how fast the Quadri-thingy
goes round the Eboladrome.

340
00:17:54,699 --> 00:17:56,089
That, of course,
means handing it over

341
00:17:56,114 --> 00:17:58,521
to a man who thinks
that tennis is something

342
00:17:58,583 --> 00:18:00,840
that was invented by Stalin.

343
00:18:01,130 --> 00:18:03,075
He's actually
a local boy this week,

344
00:18:03,176 --> 00:18:04,278
from the next state along.

345
00:18:04,333 --> 00:18:06,261
It's the American!

346
00:18:09,182 --> 00:18:10,315
There he is.

347
00:18:10,385 --> 00:18:11,622
And even he will enjoy

348
00:18:11,670 --> 00:18:13,270
this magnificent machine,

349
00:18:13,357 --> 00:18:14,761
I'm sure of that.

350
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,153
And he's off
with a glorious bark

351
00:18:17,208 --> 00:18:20,090
and a pop
from that sensational V6.

352
00:18:20,144 --> 00:18:21,255
Oh, it's wet!

353
00:18:21,319 --> 00:18:26,074
OK. Alfa Romeo Julie Quad Bike

354
00:18:26,192 --> 00:18:27,442
something or another.

355
00:18:27,519 --> 00:18:30,364
I can't say it,
can't pronounce it.

356
00:18:30,785 --> 00:18:32,730
I don't really like driving it.

357
00:18:33,089 --> 00:18:34,991
Oh, for God's sake!

358
00:18:36,176 --> 00:18:39,489
So, the tall one thinks
this is a good car.

359
00:18:39,778 --> 00:18:43,032
I still think he was dropped
on his head as a child.

360
00:18:43,222 --> 00:18:46,301
Yeah, but at least I don't
wear a cowboy hat to weddings.

361
00:18:46,442 --> 00:18:50,090
Right, now, powering majestically
into Your Name Here.

362
00:18:50,167 --> 00:18:53,160
This could be the single
greatest lap we'll ever see.

363
00:18:53,239 --> 00:18:54,683
See, what are you on about?

364
00:18:54,747 --> 00:18:55,817
It's
beautifully balanced,

365
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:57,153
hard on the power.

366
00:18:57,278 --> 00:18:59,355
A bit of a wobble there!
Some oversteer,

367
00:18:59,411 --> 00:19:00,394
but it was designed to do that.

368
00:19:00,420 --> 00:19:01,420
No, it wasn't!

369
00:19:01,465 --> 00:19:02,490
Stop saying
things, Hammond.

370
00:19:02,513 --> 00:19:03,840
I'm busy.

371
00:19:04,536 --> 00:19:06,036
This is just a BMW

372
00:19:06,098 --> 00:19:08,317
for people
who like fancy coffee.

373
00:19:08,544 --> 00:19:11,928
No, it's a BMW for people
with taste and discernment.

374
00:19:12,044 --> 00:19:13,739
No, it's a BMW for idiots.

375
00:19:13,809 --> 00:19:14,801
Hammond, be quiet!

376
00:19:14,832 --> 00:19:16,270
Look at the way it's dealing

377
00:19:16,333 --> 00:19:18,167
with Old Lady's House.

378
00:19:18,169 --> 00:19:19,811
Almost no problems at all.

379
00:19:20,010 --> 00:19:21,402
Now he can really turn it up

380
00:19:21,472 --> 00:19:22,673
for the sprint to Substation.

381
00:19:22,673 --> 00:19:25,034
Such power! Such pedigree!

382
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,502
- Such bollocks.
- Just be quiet!

383
00:19:27,574 --> 00:19:29,244
Just two corners left.

384
00:19:29,362 --> 00:19:31,916
Glorious poise in the rain
through there.

385
00:19:31,982 --> 00:19:33,199
Field Of Sheep.

386
00:19:33,291 --> 00:19:35,541
Another master class
in suspension control.

387
00:19:35,605 --> 00:19:36,920
And across the line!

388
00:19:39,238 --> 00:19:41,724
- Well, come on, then.
- Well, no...

389
00:19:41,807 --> 00:19:43,259
Come on. What did it do?

390
00:19:43,316 --> 00:19:44,971
- What?
- Time.

391
00:19:45,061 --> 00:19:46,738
No, it was wet,

392
00:19:46,838 --> 00:19:48,627
so there's no point
putting it on the board.

393
00:19:48,674 --> 00:19:49,933
It'll just wear the computer out

394
00:19:49,958 --> 00:19:51,535
- for no reason.
- Get on with it!

395
00:19:51,559 --> 00:19:53,314
- We haven't got time! But I' not able...
- Get on with it!

396
00:19:53,337 --> 00:19:54,957
All right, I'm gonna do it.
Let's look at the time.

397
00:19:54,980 --> 00:19:58,596
There we go. Time for Jeremy's
Alfa Quadriplogio.

398
00:20:00,682 --> 00:20:02,377
- That's not quick, mate!
- I'm sorry.

399
00:20:02,378 --> 00:20:03,402
That's rubbish!

400
00:20:03,463 --> 00:20:05,949
In the dry,
it would have done a 1:15.

401
00:20:05,950 --> 00:20:07,605
- No, it wouldn't.
- Yes, it would.

402
00:20:07,674 --> 00:20:08,919
- No, it wouldn't.
- It would!

403
00:20:09,032 --> 00:20:10,650
There's no point arguing anyway.

404
00:20:10,674 --> 00:20:12,448
He's got the Alfa Romeo
thing out of his system,

405
00:20:12,471 --> 00:20:14,400
which is good,
because it's time now

406
00:20:14,424 --> 00:20:15,932
for us to enjoy a gentle stroll

407
00:20:15,983 --> 00:20:19,409
along the sunlit sidewalks
of Conversation Street.

408
00:20:22,878 --> 00:20:25,035
♪♪

409
00:20:28,791 --> 00:20:30,807
- That's a good one.
- I like that one.

410
00:20:30,916 --> 00:20:32,355
It is. Right, now...

411
00:20:34,546 --> 00:20:36,646
OK. And we start with this.

412
00:20:36,777 --> 00:20:38,885
It's the new Alfa Romeo Stelvio.

413
00:20:38,955 --> 00:20:42,221
- For God's sake!
- This is important news.

414
00:20:42,305 --> 00:20:45,531
It's not important news.
It's niche news for morons.

415
00:20:45,532 --> 00:20:47,634
It's not!
It's a superb car,

416
00:20:47,692 --> 00:20:49,025
because you can have it

417
00:20:49,079 --> 00:20:50,869
with the same
500 horsepower engine

418
00:20:50,923 --> 00:20:52,650
that you get
in the Quadriplegio.

419
00:20:52,704 --> 00:20:55,731
And with that... with that
you get four-wheel-drive.

420
00:20:55,767 --> 00:20:58,067
So that one will work
in the wet, will it?

421
00:20:58,267 --> 00:21:00,782
Hammond,
when somebody has a baby,

422
00:21:00,900 --> 00:21:02,173
OK, do you go up to it and...

423
00:21:02,212 --> 00:21:03,689
"Oh, look at my new
baby that I've...

424
00:21:03,767 --> 00:21:05,208
Eurgh! It's really ugly!"

425
00:21:05,209 --> 00:21:07,210
Well, only if it's ugly.

426
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,269
You see, you can't be cruel
about Alfa Romeos.

427
00:21:10,582 --> 00:21:12,083
- Yes, I can.
- They're trying so hard!

428
00:21:12,106 --> 00:21:14,846
Well, let's just move it on.
Forget the Alfa, then.

429
00:21:14,957 --> 00:21:17,371
Now, we should talk
about where we are,

430
00:21:17,449 --> 00:21:21,457
OK, Tennessee, because this is the
bestselling vehicle in the state.

431
00:21:21,510 --> 00:21:22,955
OK.

432
00:21:23,902 --> 00:21:26,395
Yeah, we've got a picture
of the police car.

433
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,105
And an ambulance.

434
00:21:29,230 --> 00:21:31,167
- And a hearse.
- Yeah.

435
00:21:31,207 --> 00:21:34,136
I'm detecting...
detecting a theme here.

436
00:21:34,137 --> 00:21:35,905
The pickup truck,
I think I'm right,

437
00:21:35,906 --> 00:21:38,173
is very popular in this
neck of the woods, yes?

438
00:21:38,174 --> 00:21:40,143
I'm sure you may
be amazed to hear

439
00:21:40,144 --> 00:21:42,613
they really haven't
caught on at all in the UK.

440
00:21:42,614 --> 00:21:44,247
I mean, almost nobody has one.

441
00:21:44,248 --> 00:21:45,915
You hardly see them,
which is a shame,

442
00:21:45,916 --> 00:21:47,651
because I love a pickup truck.

443
00:21:47,652 --> 00:21:49,619
- Yeah, we know.
- I like a truck.

444
00:21:49,621 --> 00:21:50,921
- You know?
- Yes.

445
00:21:50,922 --> 00:21:53,630
I can say that here.
I can say that here.

446
00:21:53,714 --> 00:21:57,066
That's fine, you can say that, but not
they're actually very sensible. All right.

447
00:21:57,105 --> 00:21:58,253
Look, mate,
that's not everything.

448
00:21:58,278 --> 00:21:59,933
Anyway, you drive around
in your Ferrari, OK,

449
00:21:59,958 --> 00:22:02,403
and happily put up with the
compromises that that imposes.

450
00:22:02,497 --> 00:22:04,500
So you put up with the cost,
the inconvenience,

451
00:22:04,500 --> 00:22:07,037
and it's not very comfortable
because it's a fast car.

452
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,347
Same with a pickup.
You put up with compromises:

453
00:22:09,373 --> 00:22:11,442
the weight, the size,
the fuel consumption...

454
00:22:11,491 --> 00:22:12,792
But what's the upside?

455
00:22:12,872 --> 00:22:14,551
It's a pickup truck!
You can use it...

456
00:22:14,598 --> 00:22:16,058
You can put logs in it

457
00:22:16,130 --> 00:22:18,855
and tow... tow trees
out of the woods with it.

458
00:22:18,894 --> 00:22:20,215
You could put a bear in it.

459
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,219
Hammond, you work...
you work in the media!

460
00:22:23,220 --> 00:22:25,089
The only thing you have to
put in the back of a vehicle

461
00:22:25,114 --> 00:22:27,557
are invitations to gala lunches.

462
00:22:27,653 --> 00:22:28,950
- Well...
- That's all you ever do.

463
00:22:28,973 --> 00:22:30,387
The problem,
actually, in Britain

464
00:22:30,458 --> 00:22:32,162
with a pickup truck...
I'm sorry to admit this...

465
00:22:32,163 --> 00:22:35,230
is that if you pulled up
at a set of traffic lights

466
00:22:35,261 --> 00:22:36,785
and you had your cement mixer

467
00:22:36,864 --> 00:22:38,183
and your chainsaw in the back,

468
00:22:38,269 --> 00:22:40,614
they would be stolen
immediately.

469
00:22:41,058 --> 00:22:42,519
Anything left
in the open in Britain,

470
00:22:42,558 --> 00:22:45,489
it's like nuts at a party,
you just help yourself.

471
00:22:45,919 --> 00:22:47,458
- So why
doesn't that happen here?

472
00:22:47,598 --> 00:22:49,179
Who's got a pickup truck here?

473
00:22:49,286 --> 00:22:51,598
Holy cow! That's unbelievable.

474
00:22:51,801 --> 00:22:53,911
When you go shopping
and put things in the back,

475
00:22:53,951 --> 00:22:56,075
why doesn't someone
just help themselves?

476
00:22:56,239 --> 00:22:57,788
Because they shoot them here.

477
00:22:59,114 --> 00:23:01,692
Well, there is that.

478
00:23:01,717 --> 00:23:06,128
There is that.
Thank you, Donald!

479
00:23:06,286 --> 00:23:08,528
But why... Have you ever
had anything stolen

480
00:23:08,567 --> 00:23:09,676
when you were at a red light?

481
00:23:09,701 --> 00:23:11,567
Never? Has anyone
ever had anything...?

482
00:23:11,817 --> 00:23:13,269
- No.
- No?

483
00:23:13,348 --> 00:23:14,528
I thought this was
supposed to be

484
00:23:14,551 --> 00:23:16,497
crime-ridden in America.

485
00:23:16,606 --> 00:23:17,807
Maybe people are honest.

486
00:23:17,872 --> 00:23:18,855
I don't know, it's possible.

487
00:23:18,891 --> 00:23:20,044
If I was in Britain

488
00:23:20,096 --> 00:23:21,481
and saw a pickup truck
with a lawnmower,

489
00:23:21,506 --> 00:23:22,807
"I'll have that."

490
00:23:24,214 --> 00:23:27,637
Now, yesterday we went to erm...

491
00:23:27,719 --> 00:23:29,801
It was like a big
classic-car museum,

492
00:23:29,872 --> 00:23:32,551
just out of town here, where you
could also buy the exhibits.

493
00:23:32,630 --> 00:23:34,880
- It's great fun.
- It was a fantastic day out.

494
00:23:34,950 --> 00:23:36,036
Really enjoyed ourselves
in there.

495
00:23:36,059 --> 00:23:37,334
I mean, it was full
of, you know,

496
00:23:37,357 --> 00:23:39,128
Mustangs and Camaros and stuff.

497
00:23:39,130 --> 00:23:40,481
Stuff like this.
We've got a picture

498
00:23:40,506 --> 00:23:42,615
of this sort of thing...
'60s and '70s stuff.

499
00:23:42,748 --> 00:23:46,375
Now, we know that cars like
this are horrible to drive.

500
00:23:46,401 --> 00:23:48,878
Terrible. But they're
tremendous to look at.

501
00:23:48,933 --> 00:23:52,574
There was so much joy
in car design back then,

502
00:23:52,608 --> 00:23:54,410
and you see it
in that car there.

503
00:23:54,583 --> 00:23:56,761
It actually made us slightly
sad in a way, though,

504
00:23:56,825 --> 00:23:59,114
because as we were leaving, we
suddenly started wondering,

505
00:23:59,183 --> 00:24:01,308
"Well, what are they gonna
put in that museum

506
00:24:01,410 --> 00:24:02,424
in 40 years' time?"

507
00:24:02,459 --> 00:24:03,400
- Yeah.
- What?

508
00:24:03,424 --> 00:24:04,796
The Nissan-bloody-Juke.

509
00:24:04,882 --> 00:24:05,804
Exactly.

510
00:24:05,866 --> 00:24:08,050
I don't want to look
at that now.

511
00:24:08,084 --> 00:24:10,326
No, exactly. Or the Dodge Dart.

512
00:24:10,425 --> 00:24:13,287
Well, what child's gonna
say, "Oh, Daddy!"

513
00:24:13,334 --> 00:24:16,559
Daddy, let's go and look at the
40-year-old Dart in the museum"?

514
00:24:16,701 --> 00:24:17,912
Nobody is!

515
00:24:17,942 --> 00:24:19,248
It's true that car design

516
00:24:19,272 --> 00:24:20,536
has become so dreary lately.

517
00:24:20,636 --> 00:24:22,018
And I think part of it,

518
00:24:22,063 --> 00:24:23,987
it's almost as if
the people who design cars

519
00:24:24,064 --> 00:24:25,612
don't actually like
cars that much.

520
00:24:25,682 --> 00:24:27,515
Exactly. But they did then.
You can tell.

521
00:24:27,546 --> 00:24:30,205
There was a Cuda in there
next to a Plymouth Fury,

522
00:24:30,270 --> 00:24:33,093
and I just stood for about an
hour, just soaking them in.

523
00:24:33,202 --> 00:24:35,877
I saw a 1966 Cadillac.

524
00:24:35,943 --> 00:24:37,519
We've got a picture
of it here. Look.

525
00:24:37,644 --> 00:24:39,244
Now, what I like about this

526
00:24:39,354 --> 00:24:41,182
is that the bloke
who designed the bonnet,

527
00:24:41,222 --> 00:24:43,058
he... the grill. "I've finished
with the bonnet."

528
00:24:43,083 --> 00:24:43,791
I'll do the grill."

529
00:24:43,817 --> 00:24:45,460
But he didn't tell
the blokes doing the wings,

530
00:24:45,483 --> 00:24:48,596
and they kept going, so it
goes like another foot.

531
00:24:48,705 --> 00:24:51,166
No, but this is fantastic
with a fantastic-looking car.

532
00:24:51,213 --> 00:24:53,269
The Buick Riviera, they had
one of those in there.

533
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,096
- Look at that!
- That is glorious!

534
00:24:55,159 --> 00:24:56,172
I had one of those

535
00:24:56,221 --> 00:24:57,605
as a toy when I was little.

536
00:24:57,630 --> 00:24:59,480
If you put your finger
over the back window,

537
00:24:59,542 --> 00:25:01,112
it flashed its lights.

538
00:25:01,278 --> 00:25:02,557
And you just look and you go,

539
00:25:02,611 --> 00:25:05,174
"How can Buick have gone
from doing that

540
00:25:05,259 --> 00:25:07,260
"in, what, 30-40 years,
to doing this,

541
00:25:07,286 --> 00:25:09,112
whatever this brown..."
Look at...

542
00:25:09,644 --> 00:25:10,807
How have they done that?!

543
00:25:10,941 --> 00:25:12,480
And it's the same as Chevrolet.

544
00:25:12,534 --> 00:25:14,599
There was an Impala
in there, 1960.

545
00:25:14,625 --> 00:25:17,192
Look at that!
That is exciting not moving!

546
00:25:17,230 --> 00:25:19,487
That's a Chevy
Impala from the '60s.

547
00:25:19,557 --> 00:25:21,166
Let's have a look at one
from today.

548
00:25:21,252 --> 00:25:22,712
Oh, for God's sake!

549
00:25:22,924 --> 00:25:25,042
How do they even have the
nerve to call that an Impala?

550
00:25:25,067 --> 00:25:25,934
Because it isn't one.

551
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:27,885
I was looking at a Corvette,

552
00:25:27,939 --> 00:25:28,987
a '70s Corvette.

553
00:25:29,038 --> 00:25:30,137
That's the C3 model,

554
00:25:30,163 --> 00:25:31,307
if you're a Corvette nerd.

555
00:25:31,333 --> 00:25:32,567
This was a car that was driven

556
00:25:32,630 --> 00:25:34,278
by all of the astronauts.

557
00:25:34,411 --> 00:25:36,846
- Exactly.
- And Dirk Diggler.

558
00:25:36,973 --> 00:25:38,114
Yep.

559
00:25:38,176 --> 00:25:39,825
Ah, so it's a car

560
00:25:39,851 --> 00:25:41,973
for porn stars and astronauts.

561
00:25:42,019 --> 00:25:44,253
- What a strapline!
- What car is there today

562
00:25:44,278 --> 00:25:46,239
that could be driven by
porn stars and astronauts?

563
00:25:46,309 --> 00:25:48,357
- There isn't one.
- An Alfa!

564
00:25:48,417 --> 00:25:50,722
An Alfa?!

565
00:25:51,044 --> 00:25:53,072
Actually, he's right!

566
00:25:53,145 --> 00:25:55,932
No, astronauts
have to get there.

567
00:25:55,973 --> 00:25:57,372
He's right! That's exactly

568
00:25:57,396 --> 00:25:59,659
- what the Quadriplegio is!
- No!

569
00:25:59,732 --> 00:26:02,740
This is for porn stars and astronauts,
which is what I am.

570
00:26:02,843 --> 00:26:04,307
Now, I would like to have

571
00:26:04,357 --> 00:26:07,542
a conversation about
the Nürburgring.

572
00:26:07,771 --> 00:26:09,092
- Go on.
- Because this is important.

573
00:26:09,115 --> 00:26:10,645
Last year, I was delighted.

574
00:26:10,685 --> 00:26:12,474
The people who run
the Nürburgring in Germany,

575
00:26:12,499 --> 00:26:15,285
they said they were gonna
ban car manufacturers

576
00:26:15,435 --> 00:26:17,326
from setting lap records there.

577
00:26:17,404 --> 00:26:19,888
Sorry, why were you
delighted about that?

578
00:26:19,942 --> 00:26:21,460
Because that's
an excellent idea.

579
00:26:21,576 --> 00:26:23,968
If you make a car
that is excellent

580
00:26:24,038 --> 00:26:25,537
for doing a fast lap
of the Nürburgring,

581
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,163
it would be useless as a car
everywhere else in your life.

582
00:26:28,224 --> 00:26:30,404
It's like... It's like
setting your house up

583
00:26:30,443 --> 00:26:31,482
to play Laser Quest.

584
00:26:31,508 --> 00:26:34,237
It will be brilliant
for playing Laser Quest,

585
00:26:34,279 --> 00:26:35,616
but it'll be rubbish
for a dinner party

586
00:26:35,641 --> 00:26:36,804
because it's full of lasers,

587
00:26:36,881 --> 00:26:38,529
darkness, fog
and music that goes...

588
00:26:39,675 --> 00:26:40,554
and people running around

589
00:26:40,593 --> 00:26:41,952
thinking that they're
in Star Wars.

590
00:26:42,021 --> 00:26:43,413
Or you could get a dog...

591
00:26:43,490 --> 00:26:45,404
You could train a dog
as an attack dog,

592
00:26:45,406 --> 00:26:47,943
which is fantastic
if you own a scrapyard

593
00:26:48,021 --> 00:26:49,357
and you need
the dog to guard it,

594
00:26:49,385 --> 00:26:52,810
but take it home as a pet,
it will eat your children.

595
00:26:52,927 --> 00:26:53,851
It's completely useless.

596
00:26:53,875 --> 00:26:54,599
That's what happens

597
00:26:54,625 --> 00:26:56,904
when you set a car up
for the Nürburgring.

598
00:26:56,940 --> 00:26:58,740
This isn't really
a conversation, James.

599
00:26:58,813 --> 00:27:01,554
No, I think we've accidentally
turned down Rant Lane this week.

600
00:27:01,693 --> 00:27:02,990
Well, there's more.

601
00:27:03,013 --> 00:27:04,099
- He's off again.
- No, no.

602
00:27:04,125 --> 00:27:06,602
But the thing is,
the bad news in all this

603
00:27:06,638 --> 00:27:07,874
is that they've decided

604
00:27:07,939 --> 00:27:09,805
that they will allow
car manufacturers

605
00:27:09,835 --> 00:27:11,396
to set lap records again.

606
00:27:11,422 --> 00:27:12,326
Well, that's good.

607
00:27:12,410 --> 00:27:13,576
- No, it's bad!
- OK.

608
00:27:13,607 --> 00:27:15,630
Think of the cars
that have come out recently

609
00:27:15,654 --> 00:27:17,044
that we've driven
that have been developed

610
00:27:17,067 --> 00:27:18,876
so that they would go fast
around the Nürburgring.

611
00:27:18,901 --> 00:27:20,801
BMW M4 GTS,

612
00:27:20,874 --> 00:27:22,907
you can't deny it,
it's a terrible car.

613
00:27:22,962 --> 00:27:24,963
Nissan GT-R,
the Track Edition,

614
00:27:24,989 --> 00:27:26,521
that is a terrible car.

615
00:27:26,576 --> 00:27:29,874
Even SEAT...
the SEAT Leon Cupra 280,

616
00:27:29,968 --> 00:27:32,461
that's got a hatchback record for
going around the Nürburgring,

617
00:27:32,513 --> 00:27:33,529
and it's rubbish!

618
00:27:33,590 --> 00:27:35,843
The Nürburgring ruins cars.

619
00:27:35,904 --> 00:27:37,615
I'm developing an app
for the smart phone

620
00:27:37,679 --> 00:27:39,001
called Bomb The Nürburgring

621
00:27:39,027 --> 00:27:40,894
where you guide
a Dornier 17 over it

622
00:27:41,007 --> 00:27:42,448
and blow it up.

623
00:27:42,538 --> 00:27:44,413
What are you doing
on this programme?

624
00:27:44,438 --> 00:27:45,693
Talking sense!

625
00:27:45,756 --> 00:27:47,557
Good question.
I don't know.

626
00:27:47,644 --> 00:27:50,512
We have this old woman who
has a baking show in Britain.

627
00:27:50,551 --> 00:27:51,826
She's called Mary Berry.

628
00:27:51,912 --> 00:27:53,873
It would be...
You probably know her.

629
00:27:53,965 --> 00:27:55,106
It's probably the same

630
00:27:55,162 --> 00:27:57,186
as her saying, "I hate cakes!"

631
00:27:57,208 --> 00:27:58,162
Yes.

632
00:27:58,205 --> 00:27:59,551
Mary Berry would agree with me,

633
00:27:59,605 --> 00:28:01,200
because if she made a cake

634
00:28:01,231 --> 00:28:02,992
that had been developed
on the Nürburgring,

635
00:28:03,028 --> 00:28:05,662
someone would put
fried onions on the top

636
00:28:05,708 --> 00:28:07,723
and completely ruin it.
You'd have a Victoria sponge

637
00:28:07,748 --> 00:28:10,099
with onion on the top
for no reason!

638
00:28:10,201 --> 00:28:11,676
James, you know
you're weird, don't you?

639
00:28:11,701 --> 00:28:13,856
That's not weird. That's
the most sensible thing

640
00:28:13,958 --> 00:28:15,223
that's ever been said
on this show.

641
00:28:15,248 --> 00:28:16,833
- You are weird.
- I'm not weird.

642
00:28:16,942 --> 00:28:18,880
He is weird! We were coming
through the airport

643
00:28:18,962 --> 00:28:20,692
here the other day,
coming through Chicago,

644
00:28:20,770 --> 00:28:22,848
and he went,
"Jeremy, smell my jacket."

645
00:28:22,895 --> 00:28:24,028
He said what?!

646
00:28:24,098 --> 00:28:25,169
- Yeah.
- He did.

647
00:28:25,223 --> 00:28:26,882
He said, "Smell my jacket."
I said, "Why?"

648
00:28:26,903 --> 00:28:29,352
He said, "Because it smells
of old record players."

649
00:28:29,412 --> 00:28:32,201
- Mate, that is weird.
- But it did!

650
00:28:32,465 --> 00:28:34,473
You know record players
don't smell of anything?

651
00:28:34,590 --> 00:28:36,001
They do. Old ones do.

652
00:28:36,027 --> 00:28:37,395
They smell of old
record players.

653
00:28:37,473 --> 00:28:39,128
Who knows what they smell like?

654
00:28:39,201 --> 00:28:40,662
- I'd like us...
- The decaying...

655
00:28:40,697 --> 00:28:42,031
I'd like us to move it on

656
00:28:42,037 --> 00:28:43,662
because it's getting scary now.

657
00:28:43,715 --> 00:28:45,098
That's not the record player!

658
00:28:45,124 --> 00:28:46,715
We'll have another...
What are you on about?

659
00:28:46,740 --> 00:28:48,259
Does anybody have
an old record player,

660
00:28:48,294 --> 00:28:49,355
or anything old electrical?

661
00:28:49,380 --> 00:28:50,403
They smell, don't they?

662
00:28:50,429 --> 00:28:52,419
Has anybody ever smelled
an old record player?

663
00:28:52,451 --> 00:28:54,231
Really? You think you have?

664
00:28:54,442 --> 00:28:56,078
You've smelled an old...

665
00:28:56,169 --> 00:28:58,145
God, strewth!

666
00:28:59,755 --> 00:29:02,615
Did it have a wax cylinder on
it, your old record player?

667
00:29:02,715 --> 00:29:05,419
They smell like old plastic
and warm rubber.

668
00:29:05,590 --> 00:29:06,661
Yeah, exactly.

669
00:29:06,723 --> 00:29:09,460
That smells like a party at James's house.
special... is that..

670
00:29:11,153 --> 00:29:13,715
You're actually talking
to Thomas Edison there.

671
00:29:16,299 --> 00:29:17,700
In person.

672
00:29:17,817 --> 00:29:19,102
Well done, sir.

673
00:29:19,294 --> 00:29:20,577
Now, as we're told

674
00:29:20,633 --> 00:29:23,465
almost every day
these days, really,

675
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,576
the world's coral reefs
are all dying.

676
00:29:26,731 --> 00:29:29,590
And we're told that this
is the fault of the car.

677
00:29:29,645 --> 00:29:31,848
Well, since we host a car show,

678
00:29:31,919 --> 00:29:34,460
we thought it would be
our duty and responsibility

679
00:29:34,590 --> 00:29:36,395
to do something about it.

680
00:29:43,865 --> 00:29:47,705
Here in the Caribbean,
all appears to be well.

681
00:29:47,830 --> 00:29:49,765
But under
the shimmering blue sea,

682
00:29:49,862 --> 00:29:53,307
there's just miles
and miles of sand.

683
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,588
It's an underwater desert.

684
00:29:58,174 --> 00:30:00,049
And even when
you do find a reef,

685
00:30:00,159 --> 00:30:03,104
most of the coral
is dead or dying.

686
00:30:07,143 --> 00:30:08,451
Thirty-eight years ago,

687
00:30:08,510 --> 00:30:10,385
the local government sank a ship

688
00:30:10,424 --> 00:30:13,448
to encourage the coral
to come back.

689
00:30:14,224 --> 00:30:16,002
And it's working.

690
00:30:16,227 --> 00:30:19,249
It's already an oasis of life.

691
00:30:21,164 --> 00:30:24,201
And that gave us an idea.

692
00:30:24,959 --> 00:30:28,115
Why use a ship as the hub
or your coral reef?

693
00:30:28,171 --> 00:30:30,976
Why not use cars?
There are millions of them.

694
00:30:31,171 --> 00:30:33,585
So that's exactly what we've
done. We've got five cars.

695
00:30:33,671 --> 00:30:35,444
And rather than go
through all the expense

696
00:30:35,470 --> 00:30:37,346
and complication
of recycling them,

697
00:30:37,451 --> 00:30:39,365
we've stripped them,
taken the engines out,

698
00:30:39,476 --> 00:30:41,904
removed the paint, and they're
ready to go in the sea.

699
00:30:42,007 --> 00:30:43,874
This really does
make perfect sense,

700
00:30:43,943 --> 00:30:45,810
because when the car
is in the water,

701
00:30:45,904 --> 00:30:46,921
it will start to corrode,

702
00:30:46,999 --> 00:30:48,217
and that attracts all the things

703
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:49,796
that help the coral grow.

704
00:30:49,904 --> 00:30:51,861
And then the car itself
just rusts away

705
00:30:51,943 --> 00:30:53,363
to absolutely nothing.

706
00:30:53,435 --> 00:30:55,046
So this one, which started life

707
00:30:55,124 --> 00:30:56,396
as a pretty horrible Peugeot

708
00:30:56,443 --> 00:30:57,779
and was always a terrible car,

709
00:30:57,896 --> 00:31:01,046
will eventually become
a beautiful coral reef.

710
00:31:01,201 --> 00:31:03,296
And all this happens
quite quickly.

711
00:31:03,382 --> 00:31:04,615
So in just a few years' time,

712
00:31:04,693 --> 00:31:07,343
the BBC will be able to make
a wildlife documentary

713
00:31:07,443 --> 00:31:08,978
just in this wheel arch.

714
00:31:09,002 --> 00:31:10,335
Anyway, we've got the cars.

715
00:31:10,468 --> 00:31:11,468
I've got a crane.

716
00:31:11,538 --> 00:31:12,835
All we need now is a boat,

717
00:31:12,921 --> 00:31:14,576
which is a job
we gave to Jeremy.

718
00:31:14,646 --> 00:31:16,007
That's his responsibility.

719
00:31:16,132 --> 00:31:17,538
He'll have overdone it,
won't he?

720
00:31:17,563 --> 00:31:19,258
Well, he'll have made a
statement of some sort, so...

721
00:31:19,281 --> 00:31:22,724
Freight ship.
Full-on freight ship.

722
00:31:22,772 --> 00:31:24,241
Or a tanker.

723
00:31:30,614 --> 00:31:34,886
♪♪

724
00:31:34,971 --> 00:31:36,638
Oh. He hasn't overdone it.

725
00:31:36,810 --> 00:31:38,746
Is that him?

726
00:31:40,089 --> 00:31:42,300
What is the point of that?

727
00:31:42,574 --> 00:31:44,515
Will you come and tie it up?

728
00:31:49,261 --> 00:31:52,128
That's the worst boat
I've ever seen. That's awful!

729
00:31:52,308 --> 00:31:54,339
- What's the matter with it?
- Well, it...

730
00:31:54,512 --> 00:31:57,472
We gave you $5,000
to buy a boat.

731
00:31:57,558 --> 00:31:59,121
Boats are expensive!

732
00:31:59,228 --> 00:32:01,128
You didn't spend
all five grand on this.

733
00:32:01,231 --> 00:32:02,897
- That is not a five thou...
- Yes!

734
00:32:02,957 --> 00:32:04,550
I've got toothache. Be kind.

735
00:32:04,621 --> 00:32:07,214
Irrelevant.
That is not a $5,000 boat.

736
00:32:07,300 --> 00:32:09,038
- It is!
- It's barely a boat. Look at it!

737
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,425
It's brilliant!
You'll get a car on this.

738
00:32:11,597 --> 00:32:13,761
- Er... Where?
- On the back!

739
00:32:13,863 --> 00:32:15,644
- Who did you buy it from?
- A man.

740
00:32:15,645 --> 00:32:17,847
- Was he laughing?
- No, he wasn't.

741
00:32:17,957 --> 00:32:19,855
- Can I come aboard?
- No.

742
00:32:20,019 --> 00:32:21,220
I don't think it can take two.

743
00:32:21,246 --> 00:32:23,519
Look! It's terrible!

744
00:32:24,009 --> 00:32:25,470
Instead of just standing there,

745
00:32:25,501 --> 00:32:27,696
criticising a man
who's got toothache,

746
00:32:27,962 --> 00:32:31,294
why don't you go and get
a car on the crane

747
00:32:31,365 --> 00:32:33,517
and start loading it?

748
00:32:34,830 --> 00:32:39,306
Soon, our first car was ready
to be lifted onto the boat.

749
00:32:40,197 --> 00:32:42,347
It's just nice to be putting
something back, really.

750
00:32:42,493 --> 00:32:44,439
It genuinely is.
It's a little old Corsa,

751
00:32:44,618 --> 00:32:46,079
and it's gonna be full of coral.

752
00:32:46,197 --> 00:32:47,767
Mr Coral coming, swimming along.

753
00:32:47,845 --> 00:32:49,095
"Ooh, there's something
to latch on to."

754
00:32:49,118 --> 00:32:50,298
Then his friend comes along.

755
00:32:50,376 --> 00:32:51,595
His friend comes along.

756
00:32:51,767 --> 00:32:53,126
This is a genuinely
brilliant idea.

757
00:32:53,165 --> 00:32:55,116
That doesn't fill me with...

758
00:32:55,282 --> 00:32:56,352
total confidence.

Is that the sign for "boom out"?

00:33:10,392 --> 00:33:13,111
That. Yeah, that.

764
00:33:13,298 --> 00:33:15,564
It's like being guided

That's to release it,
you Muppet!

781
00:33:51,342 --> 00:33:52,990
Well, I thought
it was a guide rope.

782
00:33:53,115 --> 00:33:56,490
No, I steer it! You just
release it when it's on there!

He said,
"Pull the rope to steer it."

00:33:59,834 --> 00:34:01,763
This is a £400,000 crane!

786
00:34:01,856 --> 00:34:03,692
Why would you steer it
with a piece of string?!

787
00:34:03,715 --> 00:34:05,076
It's got all these
knobs and buttons.

788

- Got it.

791
00:34:14,983 --> 00:34:18,099
What if we just said
we only had four cars?

792
00:34:18,226 --> 00:34:20,570
So we've taken four cars,
removed the engines

793
00:34:20,710 --> 00:34:22,733
and the paint, and they're ready
to go in the sea.

794
00:34:22,827 --> 00:34:25,574
- We'll do that piece to camera again.
- Yeah, yeah.

795
00:34:25,693 --> 00:34:28,538
The thing is, why use a ship
as the hub of your reef?

796
00:34:28,623 --> 00:34:30,554
Why not use cars?
There are millions.

797
00:34:30,679 --> 00:34:33,835
So we've taken four cars,
removed the engines,

798

stripped them down and they're
ready to go in the sea.

And then James...
Oh, yeah.

800
00:34:39,222 --> 00:34:40,577
And then... And then,

801
00:34:40,686 --> 00:34:42,990
this Peugeot
was no good as a car,

802
00:34:43,123 --> 00:34:46,396
but will be... but the coral
will just stick to it,

803
00:34:46,460 --> 00:34:48,063
oxidising and algae.

804
00:34:48,146 --> 00:34:49,490
Doesn't take very long.

One day, BBC documentary,

Yeah, from just four cars.
That's all we had.

807
00:34:54,615 --> 00:34:56,572
Four cars. That's all
you need for a reef.

808
00:34:56,663 --> 00:34:58,351
Right, here's the boat
we've selected.

809
00:34:58,393 --> 00:34:59,695
It's a little bit damaged.

810
00:35:01,663 --> 00:35:03,311
With the release rope stowed,

811
00:35:03,429 --> 00:35:06,030
we managed to get
the first of our four cars

812
00:35:06,170 --> 00:35:10,123
onto the boat, which had
come with a broken roof.

813
00:35:11,215 --> 00:35:13,106
Yeah. Oh, yes!

814
00:35:13,289 --> 00:35:15,405
- Yes!
- Yeah!

815
00:35:15,559 --> 00:35:18,193
Good! Result.

816
00:35:18,351 --> 00:35:21,608
And then we had to
secure it in place.

817
00:35:23,476 --> 00:35:25,851
I don't understand
ratchet straps.

818
00:35:25,952 --> 00:35:29,045
Er... There's water
coming into the boat.

819
00:35:29,072 --> 00:35:32,264
- No, there was some in when I bought it.
- It's leaking.

820
00:35:32,436 --> 00:35:34,740
There's always a bit of water
in the bilges.

821
00:35:34,827 --> 00:35:36,873
It's why boats have bilge pumps.

822
00:35:36,976 --> 00:35:38,713
No, it's coming in.

823
00:35:38,936 --> 00:35:41,702
It's not just like it's in,
it's coming in.

824
00:35:41,873 --> 00:35:43,827
- Well, there's none here.
- There's holes! It's leaking!

825
00:35:43,851 --> 00:35:47,568
Oh, shit! No, there is!
Well, attach us to the crane.

826
00:35:47,623 --> 00:35:49,458
Er...
It's gone down.

827
00:35:49,530 --> 00:35:51,490
It has gone...
It is going down.

828
00:35:51,561 --> 00:35:53,170
If you attach us
to the crane,

829
00:35:53,271 --> 00:35:54,563
it won't sink, will it?

830
00:35:54,655 --> 00:35:55,990
We're tied on.

831
00:35:56,068 --> 00:35:58,842
James, can you
just take the slack?

832
00:35:59,905 --> 00:36:01,737
Sadly, James misunderstood

833
00:36:01,795 --> 00:36:03,358
this simple instruction.

834
00:36:03,615 --> 00:36:05,115
Oh, the whole thing

835
00:36:05,208 --> 00:36:06,476
has collapsed at the back!

836
00:36:06,476 --> 00:36:07,809
Oh, dear God!

837
00:36:07,943 --> 00:36:09,711
Wait! Stop!
Whoa! Whoa! What?

838
00:36:09,795 --> 00:36:10,990
It's falling over!

839
00:36:11,101 --> 00:36:12,733
James, it's falling!

840
00:36:12,782 --> 00:36:14,271
- What do you want?
- Holy Mother of God!

841
00:36:14,295 --> 00:36:17,771
It's going down!
Abandon ship! Save yourself!

842
00:36:21,452 --> 00:36:22,985
Catch it, James!

843
00:36:23,025 --> 00:36:24,639
Save it!

844
00:36:24,795 --> 00:36:25,896
Stop!

845
00:36:26,007 --> 00:36:27,858
What are you doing?

846
00:36:27,998 --> 00:36:29,601
Oh, God.

847
00:36:29,766 --> 00:36:31,748
The French Secret Service

848
00:36:31,867 --> 00:36:35,396
didn't do a job as good as this.

849
00:36:35,505 --> 00:36:37,139
I'm not talking
to any of you.

850
00:36:37,226 --> 00:36:39,014
No. Come on,
it was May's fault.

851
00:36:39,074 --> 00:36:40,510
You bought a crap boat,

852
00:36:40,554 --> 00:36:42,487
you put an idiot spaniel
on the crane,

853
00:36:42,512 --> 00:36:44,514
and, also, think
what we were gonna do

854
00:36:44,545 --> 00:36:45,880
for the conception of the car.

855
00:36:45,967 --> 00:36:47,521
People would love the car.
They would see it

856
00:36:47,545 --> 00:36:50,719
as a friendly,
coral-loving thing.

857
00:36:50,976 --> 00:36:52,327
You're swimming
like an old woman.

858
00:36:52,365 --> 00:36:54,748
I don't like being
in the bloody water!

859
00:36:54,824 --> 00:36:59,663
Fact! I'm not comfortable!
I'm from Birmingham!

860
00:36:59,795 --> 00:37:02,030
Having sunk a boat and two cars

861
00:37:02,101 --> 00:37:04,132
where the cruise liners
normally park,

862
00:37:04,217 --> 00:37:09,077
the port authorities
suggested we go away.

863
00:37:09,318 --> 00:37:11,507
So we took
our three remaining cars

864
00:37:11,592 --> 00:37:13,059
to a nearby marina,

865
00:37:13,273 --> 00:37:14,773
built ourselves a raft,

866
00:37:14,896 --> 00:37:16,092
and hired a boat

867

about being at the front

1040
00:45:48,211 --> 00:45:50,059
of the world's
biggest Rock Band.

1041
00:45:50,126 --> 00:45:52,016
- Where is he?
- He's Brian Johnson.

1042
00:45:52,085 --> 00:45:53,757
- Here he comes!
- Oh, there he is!

1043
00:45:53,829 --> 00:45:56,586
- There he is.
- The man himself. What a legend!

1044
00:45:56,688 --> 00:45:59,164
I can't... I've always wanted
to meet him. I'm thrilled.

1045
00:45:59,210 --> 00:46:01,184
- Yeah.
- That is a legend. Proper...

1046
00:46:01,269 --> 00:46:02,692
- Oh, hello.
- Oh, hello.

1047
00:46:02,784 --> 00:46:03,871
- What?
- Oh, my...

1048
00:46:05,675 --> 00:46:06,974
Oh, God!

1049
00:46:09,652 --> 00:46:12,456
- We killed him.
- We've killed Brian Johnson.

1050
00:46:12,608 --> 00:46:14,324
That's...

1051
00:46:14,909 --> 00:46:16,668
OK.

1052
00:46:16,952 --> 00:46:18,637
Brian Johnson has been run over

1053
00:46:18,715 --> 00:46:21,731
by some people who think
they are playing football.

1054
00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:23,891
- But they're not.
- It's not football, is it?

1055
00:46:23,934 --> 00:46:25,134
Cos they don't use their feet.

1056
00:46:25,224 --> 00:46:27,043
That's not football.

1057
00:46:27,175 --> 00:46:29,402
That's just people dressing up.

1058
00:46:30,965 --> 00:46:32,367
- That's...
- We play football.

1059
00:46:32,391 --> 00:46:34,621
- We play football.
- Yeah, with our feet.

1060
00:46:34,949 --> 00:46:36,456
We play football.

1061
00:46:36,644 --> 00:46:37,916
- Soccer! It's soccer!
- What?!

1062
00:46:37,940 --> 00:46:40,817
It's not soccer!
It's football that we play!

1063
00:46:40,894 --> 00:46:44,659
It's 6.75 billion people in
the world call it football!

1064
00:46:46,034 --> 00:46:47,746
You can moan and shout
all you like.

1065
00:46:47,831 --> 00:46:49,751
The fact is, we're British
and we edit this show,

1066
00:46:49,824 --> 00:46:51,119
and you'll just get cut out.

1067
00:46:51,246 --> 00:46:52,646
You will.

1068
00:46:53,422 --> 00:46:55,190
This is a rugby ball!

1069
00:46:55,253 --> 00:46:56,391
Look on the screen.

1070
00:46:56,472 --> 00:46:57,644
They're only playing

1071
00:46:57,670 --> 00:47:00,003
with the padding
they were born with!

1072
00:47:00,262 --> 00:47:01,753
This is not a football!

1073
00:47:01,864 --> 00:47:03,697
They call it football.

1074
00:47:07,603 --> 00:47:11,840
USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!

1075
00:47:14,411 --> 00:47:15,614
So...

1076
00:47:15,701 --> 00:47:18,755
Brian Johnson
has been run over by erm...

1077
00:47:18,965 --> 00:47:21,882
some supremely brave
and talented footballers.

1078
00:47:26,922 --> 00:47:28,900
Er...

1079
00:47:29,228 --> 00:47:31,197
Does that mean
he's not coming on, then?

1080
00:47:31,260 --> 00:47:33,275
Well, James, he's been hammered

1081
00:47:33,344 --> 00:47:34,516
to the thickness of an envelope

1082
00:47:34,541 --> 00:47:37,331
and his spine is now
a jigsaw, so that is a no.

1083
00:47:37,391 --> 00:47:38,726
Fine.

1084
00:47:39,166 --> 00:47:41,126
Right, so what are we
gonna do to fill the time?

1085
00:47:41,170 --> 00:47:42,032
I've got nothing.

1086
00:47:42,063 --> 00:47:43,014
We could get back

1087
00:47:43,039 --> 00:47:45,103
to our important
marine biology work.

1088
00:47:45,202 --> 00:47:46,844
- Plan. Do it.
- Yes, let's do that.

1089
00:47:46,900 --> 00:47:48,385
So when we left the action,

1090
00:47:48,485 --> 00:47:50,579
erm... I'd successfully

1091
00:47:50,681 --> 00:47:52,922
welded two cars to the seabed,

1092
00:47:52,969 --> 00:47:54,204
and that was good.

1093
00:47:54,259 --> 00:47:57,061
Yeah, and we pick up
the action the next day,

1094
00:47:57,157 --> 00:47:59,588
as we go back to finish the job.

1095
00:47:59,612 --> 00:48:02,945
♪♪

1096
00:48:03,054 --> 00:48:04,976
On our way
to get the last car,

1097
00:48:05,041 --> 00:48:06,469
we stopped at the reef site

1098
00:48:06,518 --> 00:48:09,054
to make sure everything was OK.

1099
00:48:10,483 --> 00:48:12,086
Tom Daley!

1100
00:48:19,161 --> 00:48:20,793
I don't like it.

1101
00:48:20,842 --> 00:48:22,445
Oh. Oh.

1102
00:48:25,547 --> 00:48:28,101
And after a few moments
in the water,

1103
00:48:28,217 --> 00:48:31,018
we discovered it wasn't.

1104
00:48:31,043 --> 00:48:34,166
Where the bloody hell
are they? There's the buoy.

1105
00:48:34,224 --> 00:48:35,858
This is the wrong place.

1106
00:48:35,952 --> 00:48:37,733
Yes,
that marks the spot.

1107
00:48:37,851 --> 00:48:39,469
They're just not here.

1108
00:48:39,554 --> 00:48:42,639
Why did we trust you
to fix them in place?

1109
00:48:42,664 --> 00:48:44,898
- I didn't... Listen.
- Of all people.

1110
00:48:44,936 --> 00:48:46,195
Well, I don't understand it,

1111
00:48:46,257 --> 00:48:48,882
cos I don't normally
make a mess of...

1112
00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:50,588
Oh, you must have made
a good job of it.

1113
00:48:50,612 --> 00:48:51,844
That's why they've gone!

1114
00:48:51,976 --> 00:48:54,202
There is evidence,
or a lack of it,

1115
00:48:54,398 --> 00:48:55,733
to suggest you can't weld.

1116
00:48:55,757 --> 00:48:57,411
- Oh, shit.
- Maybe a shark...

1117
00:48:57,413 --> 00:48:59,481
- Er...
- What?

1118
00:48:59,710 --> 00:49:01,561
- What?
- Look.

1119
00:49:01,927 --> 00:49:03,445
Oh, brilliant!

1120
00:49:03,518 --> 00:49:05,280
How the hell
did they do that, though?

1121
00:49:05,367 --> 00:49:07,929
You know this current
that's whizzing us about?

1122
00:49:08,023 --> 00:49:10,664
Look at them! They're not
gonna make a reef, are they?!

1123
00:49:10,818 --> 00:49:12,655
Well, maybe... it could be

1124
00:49:12,695 --> 00:49:14,764
like a play area
for the privileged.

1125
00:49:14,824 --> 00:49:15,936
Some rusty cars?

1126
00:49:15,961 --> 00:49:16,943
That doesn't
work, does it?

1127
00:49:16,969 --> 00:49:18,358
No.

1128
00:49:18,382 --> 00:49:21,445
♪♪

1129
00:49:21,471 --> 00:49:23,605
Obviously,
we had to retrieve them,

1130
00:49:23,648 --> 00:49:25,280
which meant moving the raft

1131
00:49:25,340 --> 00:49:28,108
to the stern of our crane boat.

1132
00:49:29,672 --> 00:49:31,304
James,
have you untied that end?

1133
00:49:31,380 --> 00:49:35,398
Yeah. Get ready to catch
this rope. Here we go.

1134
00:49:35,914 --> 00:49:38,264
Pull it along a bit and get
it sort of squared up.

1135
00:49:38,500 --> 00:49:39,788
I'll have a nice ride.

1136
00:49:39,851 --> 00:49:42,476
Right.
Repositioning raft.

1137
00:49:44,664 --> 00:49:46,527
That's a reassuring noise.

1138
00:49:46,648 --> 00:49:50,507
Er... Where...
Where's that come from?

1139
00:49:50,710 --> 00:49:52,065
James. James.

1140
00:49:52,195 --> 00:49:53,733
- What?
- What's that doing over there?

1141
00:49:53,789 --> 00:49:54,844
What's what doing?

1142
00:49:54,992 --> 00:49:56,719
All this bamboo's come off.

1143
00:49:56,882 --> 00:49:58,320
What have you untied?

1144
00:49:58,373 --> 00:50:00,608
I've untied the piece
of string at the front.

1145
00:50:00,655 --> 00:50:04,846
But, look, half the craft
is disappearing.

1146
00:50:05,460 --> 00:50:07,981
As the raft
was disintegrating fast,

1147
00:50:08,148 --> 00:50:10,751
we had to get it
to shore quickly.

1148
00:50:10,875 --> 00:50:13,155
Firing up the machine!

1149
00:50:15,248 --> 00:50:17,882
Sadly, though,
Jeremy's turn of speed

1150
00:50:18,072 --> 00:50:19,891
only made things worse.

1151
00:50:19,958 --> 00:50:22,126
Power! Power! Come on!

1152
00:50:22,197 --> 00:50:23,498
Slow down!

1153
00:50:24,771 --> 00:50:26,856
It's falling apart!

1154
00:50:27,168 --> 00:50:29,505
- Look, he's going down!
- Slow down!

1155
00:50:29,686 --> 00:50:32,155
Slow!

1156
00:50:40,208 --> 00:50:42,583
You can't put cars
on that, can you?

1157
00:50:43,277 --> 00:50:45,434
After we'd rescued James,

1158
00:50:45,521 --> 00:50:48,068
he stupidly suggested that,
to solve the problem,

1159
00:50:48,215 --> 00:50:50,802
we should ruin
everyone's holiday.

1160
00:51:00,865 --> 00:51:03,623
I think these people
should move out of the way.

1161
00:51:03,818 --> 00:51:06,807
My plan was to tow the cars
off the beach

1162
00:51:06,865 --> 00:51:10,378
and back to the harbour
so we could start again.

1163
00:51:10,545 --> 00:51:14,443
Which meant I'd need the help
of the man from Atlantis.

1164
00:51:14,693 --> 00:51:17,485
Hold my hand! There! There!
There! Now, let me go.

1165
00:51:17,487 --> 00:51:19,130
Yeah, that's me.
You have to let...

1166
00:51:19,168 --> 00:51:22,222
Oh, mind my arm!
Let me go now. I'm fine.

1167
00:51:22,503 --> 00:51:23,902
I don't like it!

1168
00:51:27,804 --> 00:51:29,440
Move!

1169
00:51:36,775 --> 00:51:40,322
Hammond, tie both of them to
this and give me a thumbs up.

1170
00:51:40,431 --> 00:51:42,346
If James gets those
onto the road,

1171
00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:44,119
all the way back up to
the harbour,

1172
00:51:44,228 --> 00:51:47,681
build another raft,
get them loaded on...

1173
00:51:47,846 --> 00:51:50,768
bring them back,
it's gonna take days.

1174
00:51:54,034 --> 00:51:56,143
- OK.
- Don't stand near the back.

1175
00:51:56,213 --> 00:51:57,878
The brakes don't work.

1176
00:52:00,588 --> 00:52:02,257
Yeah!

1177
00:52:15,210 --> 00:52:17,945
- Well, now what?
- That was rubbish.

1178
00:52:19,193 --> 00:52:21,882
I then said we should
use my brilliant boat

1179
00:52:21,936 --> 00:52:24,552
to tow the cars back
to the reef site,

1180
00:52:24,686 --> 00:52:27,389
which would be quicker
and easier.

1181
00:52:32,289 --> 00:52:35,224
They're in the water!

1182
00:52:37,190 --> 00:52:39,251
Ha-ha! Power!

1183
00:52:39,375 --> 00:52:40,931
Power! Come on!

1184
00:52:42,856 --> 00:52:44,289
Yes!

1185
00:52:44,474 --> 00:52:47,175
Eat my boat, James May!

1186
00:52:50,144 --> 00:52:51,278
Come on!

1187
00:52:55,159 --> 00:52:57,494
Victory is the boat's!

1188
00:53:00,355 --> 00:53:03,081
James May's hopeless plan...

1189
00:53:04,393 --> 00:53:05,800
What was that?

1190
00:53:07,663 --> 00:53:10,510
With two rusty Peugeots
in his swimming area

1191
00:53:10,565 --> 00:53:12,768
and his beach furniture
in ruins,

1192
00:53:12,902 --> 00:53:15,097
the hotel manager had had enough

1193
00:53:15,159 --> 00:53:16,978
and ordered us to leave.

1194
00:53:18,773 --> 00:53:22,911
We'd now lost four cars,
a boat and our raft.

1195
00:53:23,182 --> 00:53:26,291
But on the plus side,
we still had one car left,

1196
00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:29,784
and most importantly,
the crane boat.

1197
00:53:30,612 --> 00:53:33,534
But that night,
there was bad news.

1198
00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:41,478
The man who owns it
is not best pleased with us.

1199
00:53:41,744 --> 00:53:44,608
- Because?
- He has off-hired it.

1200
00:53:44,737 --> 00:53:47,536
- We've not got the crane boat?
- No.

1201
00:53:47,697 --> 00:53:51,014
- That was the most useful thing we had.
- Yeah.

1202
00:53:51,128 --> 00:53:54,909
So what can we possibly do
with a Land Rover?

1203
00:53:55,206 --> 00:53:57,425
- Well...
- Well, what?

1204
00:53:57,449 --> 00:53:59,135
If I can be positive...

1205
00:53:59,625 --> 00:54:01,510
The Land Rover's
largely aluminium,

1206
00:54:01,659 --> 00:54:03,994
which is actually even better
for creating a reef.

1207
00:54:04,123 --> 00:54:05,659
- True.
- But it's on the land!

1208
00:54:05,766 --> 00:54:08,034
Yes, it is true.
The Land Rover is...

1209
00:54:08,119 --> 00:54:09,978
It's irrelevant.
We've lost everything else.

1210
00:54:10,027 --> 00:54:12,534
Yes, but it's good if...

1211
00:54:14,563 --> 00:54:16,041
I've had a brainwave.

1212
00:54:16,326 --> 00:54:17,760
Oh, God.

1213
00:54:20,612 --> 00:54:22,579
And so, the next morning,

1214
00:54:22,605 --> 00:54:24,565
the people of Barbados
were treated

1215
00:54:24,608 --> 00:54:26,342
to the magnificent spectacle

1216
00:54:26,641 --> 00:54:29,108
of a Land Rover
gliding majestically

1217
00:54:29,186 --> 00:54:30,858
on a bed of inner tubes

1218
00:54:30,969 --> 00:54:33,581
across the Caribbean Sea.

1219
00:54:33,858 --> 00:54:36,438
Here we are on our final car,
and it's a classic.

1220
00:54:36,601 --> 00:54:38,063
It's a Series I Land Rover.

1221
00:54:38,101 --> 00:54:39,601
No, it's a Series II.

1222
00:54:39,722 --> 00:54:41,601
It's a Series I. The lights
are close together.

1223
00:54:41,664 --> 00:54:43,456
No, it's got the barrel
rolls on the doors.

1224
00:54:43,507 --> 00:54:44,750
It's a Series II.

1225
00:54:44,827 --> 00:54:46,438
- That makes it a Series II?
- Yeah.

1226
00:54:46,516 --> 00:54:48,273
I thought Series Ils
had the lights angled.

1227
00:54:48,405 --> 00:54:49,806
I think we're getting
stuck on this.

1228
00:54:49,898 --> 00:54:51,789
- It's a Land Rover.
- It's an old Land Rover.

1229
00:54:51,851 --> 00:54:52,938
The good thing about it is

1230
00:54:53,038 --> 00:54:55,070
it corrodes much less
quickly than the steel car.

1231
00:54:55,179 --> 00:54:57,914
We've also glued these limestone
tiles to it,

1232
00:54:57,983 --> 00:55:01,952
because porous limestone is
the perfect base, foundation,

1233
00:55:02,101 --> 00:55:03,617
for coral to start a reef.

1234
00:55:03,789 --> 00:55:06,766
This is a coral-reef-making
machine.

1235
00:55:07,016 --> 00:55:10,050
In fact, the only fly
in the ointment

1236
00:55:10,195 --> 00:55:12,952
was its propulsion system.

1237
00:55:13,155 --> 00:55:15,789
- Can I go a bit faster?
- No!

1238
00:55:15,891 --> 00:55:17,925
It's filling with
water the faster you go.

1239
00:55:17,927 --> 00:55:19,360
We'll sink it
in the wrong place.

1240
00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:22,797
This is our last car,
our last chance.

1241
00:55:23,148 --> 00:55:25,875
They're bleating on.
"Oh, don't go too fast!"

1242
00:55:26,014 --> 00:55:28,637
You're going faster
again, Jeremy!

1243
00:55:28,851 --> 00:55:30,601
You're pulling it under!

1244
00:55:31,172 --> 00:55:32,445
Relax!

1245
00:55:32,646 --> 00:55:34,382
Am I
the same species as that?

1246
00:55:34,407 --> 00:55:35,266
No.

1247
00:55:35,306 --> 00:55:37,686
Jeremy, don't sink it

1248
00:55:37,726 --> 00:55:39,547

1249

Mother of God!
Have you seen that?

1250
00:55:42,179 --> 00:55:43,652
- What?
- Guys, look!

- Holy cow! Look at it!

1252

That is phenomenal!

Yeah! Racing!

Thank you so much.

for helping us with that film.

1323
00:59:50,784 --> 00:59:53,806
And we'd just like to say
no coral was damaged

1324
00:59:53,893 --> 00:59:55,346
while we were building our reef.

1325
00:59:55,456 --> 00:59:59,190
No. Or, if we're
perfectly honest, created.

1326
00:59:59,385 --> 01:00:01,342
However, we came back
with a brilliant idea.

1327
01:00:01,431 --> 01:00:03,110
You see, we liked it
in the Caribbean.

1328

You know, our crews liked it
in the Caribbean.

1329
01:00:05,291 --> 01:00:07,393
So we thought it would be
a good idea, next week,

1330
01:00:07,456 --> 01:00:08,385
to make a film

1331
01:00:08,416 --> 01:00:11,119
comparing the motoring
cultures of the French,

1332
01:00:11,119 --> 01:00:12,534
the Dutch
and the British Islands.

1333
01:00:12,621 --> 01:00:14,626
- Yeah, it was a great idea.
- Brilliant idea.

1334
01:00:14,664 --> 01:00:16,001
But Mr Wilman, our producer,

1335
01:00:16,057 --> 01:00:17,931
he decided it wasn't
a brilliant idea,

1336
01:00:17,956 --> 01:00:18,909
and that, instead,

1337
01:00:18,978 --> 01:00:21,353
we should go to northern
France with three old cars

1338
01:00:21,429 --> 01:00:23,414
and drive around in the rain.

1339
01:00:23,853 --> 01:00:25,298
So that's what
we're actually doing.

1340
01:00:25,346 --> 01:00:27,510
And on that terrible
disappointment, it's time to end.
